Midget 4,489 Report post Posted September 21, 2017 Check out the ratings of Son Of Maher v. Shoot To Kill in the second last at Riccarton tomorrow. How could Son Of Maher win a trial and lose a point ? . Sort your shit out and you NZTR, you're inept, incompetent. BTW Pitman is NOT the handicapper so block his phone, and let's make this a level playing field. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelseacol 2,488 Report post Posted September 22, 2017 Strange. My horse ran second in that trial beaten over a length - why don't we lose a couple ???? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilverHawk 15 Report post Posted September 22, 2017 This is another example of Strictlands incompetence. Im sick of saying it. How on earth can a horse lose a point for winning a trial! NZTR should be made to explain, why this happened. NZTR, youve opened a can a worms to allow this to happen.Now others will expect it. No way should a horse lose a point in a Open trial, especially a winner. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Contentious 570 Report post Posted September 22, 2017 I remember a trainer from Cambridge getting fined about $5k for saying something about the handicapper. Will he get his $5k back now?

gubellini 3,923 Report post Posted October 1, 2017 I would label NZTR as incompetent rather than corrupt. The Stud Book on their site has been out of action for three days. Obviously no inbuilt checks to ensure this doesn't happen! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
slam dunk 1,317 Report post Posted October 1, 2017 This thread is beyond ridiculous. If a horse loses a point obviously its been reassessed. To somehow suggest there is corruption is just stupid. A clear case where the thread should have been deleted. You just can't go around calling people corrupt. Maybe this was a sarcastic thread but judging by the tone I don't think so.

puha 2,177 Report post Posted October 1, 2017 Maybe Uneasy will come on and give his take on it and clear up the debate ? Can anyone else recall a trial winner losing a point ? Fartoomuch 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huey 2,037 Report post Posted October 5, 2017 Does anyone know Peter Early email address as I think this would be a good question for him to seek some info on from the RIU on his show. I'm absolutely dumbfounded that a horse has lost a point winning a trial and that this hasn't caused more of an up roar.

uneasy 497 Report post Posted October 6, 2017 SofM was reassessed after the Derby Tell me any other horse that's received 17 points for running 2nd in any race in NZ That is what SofM got for running second to Dukedom in Levin Classic went from R65 to R82 had previously won maiden races at Kurow and Omakau. Winner Dukedom only got 13 points going from R71 to 84 had been Group2 and Group3 placed in his lead up races I Asked for a reassessment following two poor runs prior to spelling as a 4 yr old and he was dropped one more point, half a kilo, it had nothing to do with his trial Who would think any horse would drop points for winning a trial Can anyone name me one horse that has received 17 points for running second. I'm sure xpecting an avalanche of names YEAH RIGHT! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
uneasy 497 Report post Posted October 6, 2017 The trial is irrelevant I asked for reassessment before he trialled the less one point was applied On 19th Sept close to two weeks after I first approached the handicapper and after he had returned from being in Melbourne Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
